Ingredients

  • 1 stick salted butter
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh chives chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves minced
  • 1 garlic clove grated
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
  • pinch of freshly ground black pepper
  • 4 fresh corn cobs silk removed

Instructions

  1. Place the softened butter into a bowl.
  2. Whip the butter with an electric beater or a fork to loosen it up.
  3. Add the herbs, grated garlic and Parmesan cheese, then stir to combine.
  4. Take a piece of plastic wrap and lay it down flat. Scoop the butter out into the center of the plastic wrap.
  5. Form the butter into a log, then twist the ends to secure. Place the butter in the fridge to firm up for about an hour.
  6. Peel the husks back to remove the silk from the corn, but don't fully remove the husks. Once the ears are clean, wrap them back up and place them into a bowl of cold water. This will allow them them to soak up some moisture, and will help them steam on the grill.
  7. Grill the corn on medium low heat for 20-25 minutes, until the husks are charred and the corn kernels are tender. You'll be able to tell when the corn is done, because the kernels become a deep golden color when cooked.
  8. Top each ear of corn with a generous slab of the Parmesan herb butter.
